Threat Detection for not so Common Cloud Services

Threat Detection for not so Common Cloud Services

Threat detection is often limited to popular cloud services, so whats happening to all the "not so popular or commonly known" cloud services in your environment? We are speaking to Suresh Vasudevan, CEO of Sysdig about challenges typically companies find with this space and what should be the approach for threat detection. If you feel you are looking at threats from all cloud services you might want to hear this episode to know you actually are.
